The essentials of playing Binary Puzzle
Try Binary Puzzle at your own pace and keep its objective in view. Fill a 6×6 grid with balanced zeroes and ones, no three equal neighbours, and no duplicate rows or columns. Look at what changes after your first action. Read the objective before making your first input. Use the example below to understand a decision.
Choose from ten 6×6 puzzles. Undo changes or reveal a selected cell when you need help.
One thing to notice as you play
Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Notice the feedback after each input.
What counts as success
Fill a 6×6 grid with balanced zeroes and ones, no three equal neighbours, and no duplicate rows or columns. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. The example below illustrates a decision.
How to proceed
- Select an editable square.
- Enter 0 or 1; each line needs three of each.
- Avoid three consecutive equal values horizontally or vertically.
- Check puzzle validates balance, triples and unique lines.
Getting comfortable with the controls
Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Look at the feedback after the action.
Try this example
A row beginning 0 0 needs 1 next. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Take a moment to compare.
A mistake to avoid
Balanced rows may still duplicate each other. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
